All Illinois deer hunters NEED to voice there concerns and issues here. Tell them you want NO part in the purposed 3rd week in Oct. gun season. It's a survey, with chances to to give them ideas on how to approah deer population issues. The comments and questionaire section are at the very bottom.

thanks for the link, did it! let's see if something comes of it...
Strongly urge others to oppose any gun season in October.
as well as"Earn a 2nd Buck Tag"
Personally I'd like to see December be our 1 and only gun season. If they wish to issue extra antlerless permits for it, great, not opposing any of that, but I do think a 1 month long december season, like I believe Iowa has would be a great thing. Less pressure by other hunters since we can spread out our hunting days. Would give the weekend hunters 4 weekends or so as opposed to 2 wekends, and only 4 days, even though we have a 7day season. So if you agree, jump on board with December being our firearm season.

If I purchare a license I have a say. I am aconsumer. If I have the most sayl, I win! In addition to bow hunters in general having what is quite obviously an elitsit attitude. What do you do when the small game hunters come threw? And ethical compliance, when is a deer drive unethical?? Another bowyerism!

Now lanse couche couche, we do have three months, but like my man solocamcan stated, as bowhunters for them to even propose to bring a season like this in october is outrageous. Late october pre rut is in swing, mid november its in full swing, and december post rut is working for us. now if a shotgun season takes place in october, our best chance of a trophy buck is completely screwed up. Deer get unpredictable and spooky after gun season. Shotgun hunting was ok for me when i was a kid, but now its not even amusing, i just drink a lot of beers on these two weekends with some buddies.Now, Buckhunter1 a deer drive is unethical to me,period. say its the last day of a gun season and your trying to eat some deer loins instead of a tag sandwich thats cool, but i dont believe in it. now if IDNR really wants to control the herd, wtf is wrong with a extended late season? nothing! its getting tough to hunt here in illinois
